Since everyone already answered, here is my answer :-)
1. You can choose your own class.
Advantages:
You choose max. profile length, etc.
Naming conventions is completely up to you, that means no interference
with other products/profiles, no reserved names/prefixes.
Disadvantage:
Some people are
David,
Why don't you give the option to select the RACF class to the customer? You can
give the instructions to create a new class in CDT or instruct them to use the
XFACILIT class.

Hi Jon,
Thanks for your thoughts, but I'm not trying to
decide if I should use FACILITY. I'm trying to
decide how I should go about discontinuing using FACILITY.
Based on suggestions from others on this thread,
I've made the decision to switch to using a class named XFACILIT.

While some have suggested creating your own class, there is an off-the-shelf
class suitable for XDC's use: XFACILIT.
- Maximum resource length is 246
- Default return code is 8 (everything is denied if the resource is not defined)
This is just as suitable as creating your own class name, and pos
Regardless of whether it is hard or easy, why would you
want to bother creating a new class when there is an
existing class (XFACILIT) that completely addresses the problem
(and thus would be easier for a customer)?

Subject: Re: RACF, the FACILITY class,
Ed Jaffe recommended against creating a SAF class. I'll respectfully suggest
that it's not that hard.
First, if you do, IBM told us, "Start the class name with a dollar sign-we'll
never use those". Of course you could collide with
another vendor, but that's unlikely.
We've had customers doing s

The properties for the supplied classes in RACF can be found here

You can easily add new classes by adding a profile in the CDT class.

The longest profile name in FACILITY is 39 characters (At least in z/OS v2.3)
I would say that if you need something longer, you should create a dedicated
class with the properties you want.
